Our earrings sell well on reels and then come back as returns.

Fashion jewellery sells on a reel and a price. That is the easy part. The hard part comes later: the cash-on-delivery order refused at the door, the earring that arrives with a stone loose, the plating that fades before the wedding season is over.

A 90-minute audit call and a written, scored report. Turnaround, reporting and term are agreed in writing after the audit.

In one paragraph

Fashion jewellery online is imitation and artificial jewellery, such as kundan, American diamond, oxidised, beaded and gold-plated pieces, sold at low prices to match an outfit or a trend through Instagram, Meesho, Myntra and your own store. GullySales works on what your listings say about weight, plating and care, which orders turn into returns or refusals, and how a buyer who bought once comes back for their next outfit.

Nobody here asks for a hallmark. They ask whether it will match a green saree, whether it is heavy on the ears, and whether it will turn black. Margins are thin, so every return shows up in what you keep.

Last updated 7 Oct 2026. Product, labelling and advertising rules for jewellery differ by product and change. We describe them in general terms, so check the current position with your own adviser or the regulator before you publish a claim.

Who it is for

This is written for you if you sell fashion jewellery online.

  • Instagram sellers of kundan, American diamond and oxidised sets
  • Brands selling imitation jewellery on Meesho, Myntra, Flipkart and Amazon
  • Makers and wholesalers starting to sell straight to buyers online
  • Saree and lehenga boutiques that sell jewellery to match

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • A seller who wants more cash-on-delivery orders without fixing why they come back
  • Anyone who wants plated or imitation pieces described as gold or silver

How buyers choose

What decides the sale of fashion jewellery.

  1. The outfit and the occasion

    Buyers search by what they will wear it with: earrings for a lehenga, a choker for a silk saree, an oxidised set for a kurta. They want the piece shown on a person in that outfit.

  2. Weight and size on the body

    Heavy jhumkas hurt. The buyer wants the weight, the earring length and the choker size before ordering.

  3. Plating, stones and wear

    Will the colour fade, will the stones fall out, will it go black with sweat. Reviews with photographs taken after a few outings decide it.

Where sales are lost

What usually goes wrong when you sell fashion jewellery online.

In the words sellers use on the first call.

  • “Cash-on-delivery orders get refused at the door”

    An impulse buyer has cooled off by the time the parcel arrives. You pay shipping both ways on a piece that cost little to make.

  • “Customers say the earrings were heavier than they thought”

    With no weight or length on the listing, the buyer pictured something lighter. The return reason says exactly that.

  • “Pieces arrive broken”

    Kundan and stone-set pieces crack or shed stones in transit when the box was chosen on price alone.

The scope

The work we would propose for fashion jewellery.

Measured on purchases, conversion rate, cost to win a customer, average order value and repeat purchases. Anything here that needs a platform or tool we have not used with you is confirmed in the audit before it goes in the scope.

What we do

What you get for fashion jewellery.

Each deliverable and what it is there to change.

  1. A return reason review

    Last season's returns sorted into weight, colour, breakage, refusal and change of mind, with a fix proposed for each.

  2. An outfit-led catalogue

    Collections grouped by saree, lehenga, kurta and western wear, every piece photographed on a person.

  3. A care and plating note

    What the piece is made of, how to store it away from moisture and perfume, and what to expect from the plating with wear.

  4. A cash-on-delivery confirmation message

    The wording and the rule for cancelling unconfirmed orders, ready to set up on your platform.

How the result is measured

  • Purchases
  • Conversion rate
  • Customer acquisition cost
  • Average order value
  • Return rate
  • Refused cash-on-delivery orders

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Free audit call

    90 minutes with whoever handles your enquiries: how they arrive, how fast they are answered, where they are lost.

  2. After the call

    Written, scored report

    Six areas scored, fixes ranked by return and cost. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come with it, in writing.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    Usually the cheapest one on the report: reply time, a follow-up sequence or the marketing-to-sales handover.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

What we need from you

What to have ready before the audit call.

None of it has to be tidy. We read what you have.

  • Your store, marketplace and Instagram links
  • Return and refusal reasons by product
  • Your strongest and weakest sellers from the last sale
  • Ad spend by platform and the orders it brought
  • Photographs of your packaging

Selling in India and abroad

Selling fashion jewellery beyond your own market.

Where you sell decides sizes, units, seasons and returns. We work from Bengaluru and have no overseas office, so for a new country we start from your own sales and the platforms you already use.

  1. Indian occasions abroad

    Diaspora buyers in the US, the UK, Canada and the Gulf buy fashion jewellery for weddings, Diwali and Eid, and search in English for the same outfit-led terms. Etsy and your own store are the obvious places to test.

  2. Low value, costly shipping

    Shipping abroad can cost more than a single pair of earrings, so sets and bundles make more sense. Duty and returns are checked before you list, starting from any overseas orders you already get.

FAQ

Questions about selling fashion jewellery online.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

How do I reduce returns on artificial jewellery?
Read your return reasons first, then fix what they point to. If buyers say heavy, add weight and length to the listing; if pieces break, change the box. Refused cash-on-delivery orders need a confirmation step before dispatch, which is a separate fix.
Should I stop offering cash on delivery?
Not before you look at your numbers. Cash on delivery brings first-time buyers who would not pay in advance, and it also brings refusals. Try a confirmation message and a prepaid offer before switching it off.
Can I call my jewellery anti-allergic or nickel-free?
Only if you can prove it for that piece, with the wording checked by your adviser. Buyers with sensitive skin rely on that line, and a reaction becomes a complaint and a review. If you cannot test it, describe the base metal and plating instead.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped in the free audit and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after the audit, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
Fixes to reply time, follow-up and your Google Business Profile are the quickest to show, because the enquiries already exist. Ads can follow soon after follow-up is in place. SEO and content take longer. How long each takes depends on your business, and the audit tells you which applies to you. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you meet on the audit call. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
For the audit, last month's enquiries in any format and 90 minutes with whoever handles them. After that, access to the accounts the work touches, such as the website, Google Business Profile or CRM, and time for the review meetings.
